reducing the memory Jags uses by limiting the number of channels scanned

Using the memory watcher TAP to help tune the settings

opt 47 No of channels with extended info

opt 48 Max events per channel

reducing the number of other TAPS used

Good new behaviour caused by the July 2006 “Bastille Day” firmware is that the native EPG buffer is populated much more efficiently so Jags only needs a brief visit to each channel in order to sort its own EPG data out. Previously it was necessary to set Jags to scan each channel for maybe 90 seconds, but now a mere 5 seconds is reported to be enough.
